for three quarters of an hour the people
gave undivided attention. The themes
dwelt upon were, The greatness of our
privileges as people, as church, and
rs individuals. Our responsibilities are
commensurate-GOd' patience becomes
exhausted because of long continued ne

1t was sung kneeling. As the hand
of the watch came to the last minute of
1886, the singing ceased and the audience
waited in solemn prayer and conservation.
The pastor presently announced the adj
vent of 81, the people arose, the doxology
of praise was sung and benediction pro-
nounced. 1t was a solemn occasion.
Some minutes were afterward spent in
